  • Capturing PAL / with deck control

    Posted by Steve Radley on June 26, 2006 at 5:15 pm

    I am capturing in FCP Composite PAL uncompressed 8-bit from an NTSC to PAL converter, playing back from an NTSC Digibeta machine with a tape that has non-drop timecode, patched composite into the converter. I am doing this successfully with the io deck control set to non-controllable device and just manually pressing play on the deck. I did a test changing the deck control to RS-422 NTSC and the PAL capture seemed to be fine. I would love to be able to Batch Capture with deck control. Will my clip eventually be out of sync somehow with my 25 fps sequence if I capture with RS-422 NTSC control? Does the RS-422 NTSC control non-drop timecode get captured with the PAL signal, or is non-drop code, non-drop code no matter what the frame rate the clip is?
